Traditionally the Outfit has been able to extort a lot if criminals, from bookmakers to thieves to pornographers to car thieves.

I'm sure they still can intimidate people here and there but I wouldn't imagine a professional car thief for example is working with the Outfit unless he wants to these days. They are just not that frightening.

BTW Fosco also said that there are lots of kid bookmakers who aren't connected to the Outfit...the reason people don't use them is because no one gets paid.
